This is not something which breaks the law, as it is done by communicating effectively the advantages and disadvantages in taking a decision or another
- Grassroots Lobbying - an attempt to influence the legislation by making an attempt to affect the opinions of the general public or any segment of the public. It is done mostly by mass-media, PR and word-of-mouth communication within the communities targeted.
